Promotion to Assistant Teaching Professor at UIUC

I am happy to announce that after five years of adjunct teaching at the University of Illinois dept of Theatre, I have been asked to join the faculty full-time. I now teach Drawing at the super-cool fine arts dorm, Allen Hall and continue my work in Costume Design and advising in the fantastic dept. of Theatre. I am SO grateful to be among a fabulous group of dedicated and inspiring colleagues and students with still a bit of time of the side to pursue my studio artwork. Yahooooooooo! Long live the arts and humanities!
